Moonspear sing hard for the sunshine

She stared as he brightened and smiled in greeting. He was so big now! Though as proud as she was, as she looked at him, she noted the slimness of his chest and legs. Perhaps grown was the right word. He seemed to take after Amekaze in both colour and build, as he seemed to be filling out into a more gangly sort of figure. Vela and Galaxy — especially Galaxy with her recent affliction — were similar in size, causing Lyra to wonder if her little siblings were just small wolves.

No less helpful, though! "Thank you," Lyra grinned as he deposited the bundle of herbs at her feet, and she bent to sniff and pick through them. She didn't know them all, but the dandelions were one of her favourites. She twitched an ear as Jarilo explained Amekaze had given him instruction, nodding. His confusion about the man's name told her that maybe he wasn't entirely aware of the situation. Had Charon or Amekaze explained it all to them? Was it even that important that they know?

"Rannoch's the wolf who got hurt outside the borders," she explained, gesturing up the path a little to where the den was. "I'm helping him get better." She touched the plants lightly with a forepaw. "And I use these plants to do that!" She hoped that explained enough, she didn't want to go into detail about how Rannoch got hurt, wanting to shield her baby brother from the dangerous outside world. At least for a little while longer.
